Decorating with wood: 20 marquetry ideas

Make an entrance

Tim
Gosling has a long history of working with traditional inlay
techniques. This panel, based on a colonnade in Rome, is situated
at the far end of an entrance hallway. 'I created this vista using
lanterns commissioned from Charles Edwards,' he says. 'The same lantern
design was incorporated into the panel in an interpretation of
harewoods and grey sycamores.' Here, by acknowledging the
architectural details of its setting, the wall panel creates the
illusion of an extension of the space, while also introducing
warmth and decorative contrast.
